Selfhosted

54513 readers

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

So, I'm part of an org that operates two podcasts. One is hosted on Podbean, the other Libsyn. They've both just put their prices up (with no extra features or increase in space or bandwidth) by almost 50% so we're looking to move.

I want to give Castopod a go and have a VPS that could easily manage it, with plenty of space and bandwidth but finding unbiased opinions on its features/quality is difficult. So, if anyone has any experiences of self hosting it, how good/stable/reliable it is or things to look out for or features it lacks I'd love to hear about them.
